(801) Our identity is created through our personalisation of our brains
Utterance:
[Susan] Greenfield poses her questions, and frames her search for answers, in neuroscientific terms. "Our identity," she says "is our brains"; more specifically, it lies in "the personalised connectivity of an otherwise generic brain". Brains are plastic and this lies at the root of her concerns. They respond to experience by changing the way their neurones are wired together - the number of connections and their strength. This is how we mature and acquire those skills that enable us to function in the world. But its plasticity also makes the brain susceptible to unwelcome and unforeseeable influences. Twenty-first-century technologies may bend our brains, and hence erode our identities, in ways previous generations could not have envisaged.
